My Take
There is something compelling about an actor who emerges from Whitehorse in the Yukon, about as remote a starting point as Canada offers, and carves out a steady career. Tahmoh Penikett's turns as Helo on Battlestar Galactica and Paul Ballard on Dollhouse anchored him as a reliable presence in smart genre television, and appearances in Supernatural and Continuum confirm his value to that world. He brings a grounded, earnest quality rather than flash, and the Muay Thai background hints at real discipline. I tend to favor actors who build careers on sincerity and craft, and Penikett fits that mold.
